Q4 of 16 Page 88

Lets write the measurement of 7 angles from the figure beside if XY||PQ.


Given that XY||PQ and cut by a transversal.

So, if two lines are parallel and cut by a transversal then the corresponding angles are equal,


Alternate interior angles are equal


Alternate exterior angles are equal,


Sum of co-interior angles is 180°.


2=50° (vertically opposite angles)


Now, as XY is a straight line,


2+3=180° (linear pair)


3=180° -2


3=180° -50°


3=130°


1=3=130° (vertically opposite angles)


Also, 6=3=130° (corresponding angles)


7=2=50° (corresponding angles)


4=3=130° (alternate interior angles)


5=2=50° (alternate exterior angles)


Hence, 1=130°, 2=50°, 3=130°, 4=130°, 5=50°, 6=130° and 7=50°
